The Woman in the Water

'How do I keep my family safe, when I don’t know why we’re in danger?'

When Felicity Wheeler gets the call that her sister has drowned near the old boardwalk in their hometown, she realizes that she is the only person able to take care of her two nieces.

Returning home, Felicity discovers that the town she once left is still haunted by the memories of her past: former friends, heartbreaks and secrets. Secrets that might reveal whether Holly's death was an accident or not.

Felicity knows that Holly wouldn't just have let the water take her. Something or someone else had to be part of the equation.

Had someone else discovered the truth about what happened all those years ago? Was Holly's death payback for it? Would Felicity's two nieces and even herself be next?

An absolutely gripping, twisty psychological thriller that will keep you turning the pages late into the night.

Perfect for fans of "The Girl on the Train", "The Woman in the Window" and "The Silent Patient".
